Our admissions process is designed to be smooth and straightforward and focuses on understanding the individual student. We don’t select by entrance exam but use a combination of digital data (either current or arranged by us), current school information and in-person visits to ensure we’re the perfect match.
To get to know each applicant individually, we consider current school reports, a Head’s reference, and ask to see an example of some recent creative writing. We value the insights of current schools and use them to understand each student’s unique strengths and areas for development.
Of course, we also want to get to know each student and learn more about them as an individual ourselves. That’s why we invite all prospective students in for one of our D Days to see if we are right for each other.

Come to one of our Open Mornings or book a Head’s Coffee.

We’ll ask to see a recent report and latest digital data scores such as CAT 4 data or the Wandsworth test or similar. Ideally, we’d also like to see a piece of marked, creative-writing too.
We’ll contact your current school. We set great store by the personal, confidential reference; after all, they should know their pupils’ strengths very well.
Assuming that all is well, we’ll invite you to a ‘Discovery’ Day. This is our chance to discover more about you and for you to discover more about us. These are experiential, problem solving sessions which involve creative thinking, collaboration and fun!
Assuming that we all agree that LPS Clapham is the right place for you, we’ll send you an offer. You’ll have two weeks to accept.
Welcome to LPS Clapham! We’ll be in touch with more details to get you fully enrolled and part of the LPS Clapham family.
If you are interested in an occasional place, please contact us on admissions.clapham@londonparkschools.com or call on 020 8161 0301.
